[OPENING MUSIC].
00:00:00.56\00:00:16.63
ANOTHER WARM GREETING TO ALL OF
YOU DEAR FRIENDS WHO ARE A PART
00:00:16.63\00:00:23.06
OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH FAMILY.
00:00:23.06\00:00:25.40
REALLY THAT'S THE
WAY WE THINK OF YOU.
00:00:25.40\00:00:27.80
WITHOUT YOU FOLKS THERE WOULD
BE NO POINT IN US BEING HERE.
00:00:27.80\00:00:32.23
THERE WOULD BE NO GOSPEL
OUTREACH ORGANIZATION THAT NEEDS
00:00:32.23\00:00:36.06
TO BE OPERATED OUT OF
COLLEGE PLACE, WASHINGTON.
00:00:36.06\00:00:37.70
IF IT WASN'T FOR THE NETWORK OF
PEOPLE, THE FAMILY OF PEOPLE THE
00:00:37.70\00:00:42.43
WORLD AROUND WHO HAVE BECOME
INSPIRED, EXCITED ABOUT THIS
IMPORTANT MINISTRY.
00:00:42.43\00:00:48.50
REMEMBERING BRIEFLY,
I RECALL FRANK STANYER.
00:00:51.16\00:00:57.36
I REMEMBER HIM AS THE FATHER OF
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND SO GRATEFUL
00:00:57.36\00:01:04.16
FOR HIS RESPONSE TO THE
INSPIRATION GOD GAVE HIM, AND
WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN
00:01:04.16\00:01:08.90
THE INTERVENING 20
YEARS IS JUST REMARKABLE.
00:01:08.90\00:01:12.16
I WISH I HAD TIME TO TALK ABOUT
ALL THE DETAILS OF GOSPEL
OUTREACH, BUT TODAY
00:01:12.16\00:01:18.66
WE'VE GOT EXCITING THINGS
THAT I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU.
00:01:18.66\00:01:22.53
I'M DELIGHTED TO BE HERE
WITH MY FRIEND DWIGHT ROSE.
00:01:22.53\00:01:25.73
WELCOME DWIGHT.
00:01:25.73\00:01:27.10
HI DAN.
00:01:27.10\00:01:28.10
GLAD TO SEE YOU.
00:01:28.10\00:01:29.43
I JUST CANNOT RESIST DWIGHT
LETTING THE FOLKS KNOW THAT YOU
00:01:29.43\00:01:34.63
AND I HAVE SOME KIND
OF A SPECIAL CONNECTION.
00:01:34.63\00:01:37.76
I DIDN'T MEET HIM UNTIL A GOSPEL
OUTREACH ENCOUNTER, BUT IN
00:01:37.76\00:01:43.80
REALITY I KIND OF KNEW WHO HE
WAS BECAUSE HE AND I HAD A
COMMON CONNECTION IN A WONDERFUL
00:01:45.86\00:01:51.93
YOUNG LADY AT THE LOMA
LINDA UNIVERSITY CHURCH.
00:01:53.90\00:01:57.33
YOU PROBABLY KNOW, I'M A
PART-TIME ASSOCIATE PASTOR
00:01:57.33\00:02:01.23
THERE. ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES
AT LOMA LINDA IS DWIGHT ROSE'S
00:02:01.23\00:02:06.10
DAUGHTER. SHE IS
SHAWNA LYNNE CAMPBELL.
00:02:06.10\00:02:10.33
SHE IS MINISTER FOR CHILDREN'S
MINISTRY AT THE UNIVERSITY
00:02:10.33\00:02:16.40
CHURCH. IF YOU SEE LOMA LINDA
UNIVERSITY CHURCH ON TELEVISION
00:02:18.93\00:02:24.10
AND THAT LOVELY YOUNG LADY WHO
OFTEN DOES THE CHILDREN'S
FEATURE OR OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS,
00:02:24.10\00:02:28.60
SHE IS DWIGHT ROSE'S
DAUGHTER, SHANNA LYNNE CAMPBELL.
00:02:28.60\00:02:33.00
WE'RE GRATEFUL FOR HER MINISTRY,
AND I KNOW YOU ARE HAPPY FOR HER
00:02:33.00\00:02:38.23
MINISTRY.
00:02:38.23\00:02:39.20
OH YES.
00:02:39.20\00:02:40.46
IT'S REALLY A NEW DEVELOPMENT IN
HER LIFE, AND SHE JUST LOVES IT.
00:02:40.46\00:02:46.43
WELL WE LOVE HER
I CAN TELL YOU THAT.
00:02:46.43\00:02:48.40
WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR
HER MINISTRY AND HER HUSBAND'S
00:02:48.40\00:02:53.96
MINISTRY. KIRK IS SUCH A
MARVELOUS CONTRIBUTION TO THE
UNIVERSITY AND TO OUR
00:02:53.96\00:03:00.06
CHURCH AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL TWO
GRANDDAUGHTERS THERE AS WELL.
00:03:00.06\00:03:04.46
HOW DO YOU STAY AWAY?
00:03:04.46\00:03:06.26
WELL, IT'S HARD.
00:03:06.26\00:03:07.56
IT'S REALLY NICE TO COME TO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND SPEND
00:03:07.56\00:03:11.43
SOME TIME. WE LOOK FORWARD
TO ANY TIME YOU'LL BE THERE.
00:03:11.43\00:03:15.33
YOU ARE A VERY IMPORTANT
PART OF GOSPEL OUTREACH DWIGHT.
00:03:15.33\00:03:18.46
I WILL JUST SAY INITIALLY THAT
DWIGHT ROSE IS OUR DIRECTOR FOR
00:03:18.46\00:03:24.53
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA.
00:03:28.00\00:03:31.16
GIVE US A LITTLE OVERVIEW.
00:03:31.16\00:03:32.86
WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN WE
SAY GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA?
00:03:32.86\00:03:37.73
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA IS
RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF AFRICA,
00:03:37.73\00:03:43.80
AND THAT'S A
PRETTY BIG TERRITORY.
00:03:46.86\00:03:48.43
THERE ARE 54 COUNTRIES
AND A COUPLE OF TERRITORIES.
00:03:48.43\00:03:55.16
THERE ARE MORE
THAN A BILLION PEOPLE.
00:03:55.16\00:03:57.30
MANY, MANY, MANY OF THEM
DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT JESUS.
00:03:59.53\00:04:05.33
WHEN WE SAY RESPONSIBLE
FOR AFRICA, THAT MEANS YOU'RE
00:04:05.33\00:04:13.13
LEADERSHIP IN CANADA TELLS THE
GOSPEL OUTREACH STORY ACROSS
CANADA FOR THE PURPOSE OF
00:04:13.13\00:04:19.33
ENCOURAGING BELIEVERS IN CANADA
TO BE A PART OF THE GOSPEL
00:04:19.33\00:04:24.70
OUTREACH FAMILY. THAT'S THE
REASON WHEN WE PUT UP THE
ADDRESS AND SO FORTH ON THE
00:04:24.70\00:04:30.20
SCREEN, ALSO THERE IS AN ADDRESS
FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA, AN
EMAIL ADDRESS, ALL THE
00:04:30.20\00:04:36.23
INFORMATION.
00:04:36.23\00:04:37.56
IT IS TO YOU THAT ALL OF THOSE
QUESTIONS GET DIRECTED WITH
00:04:37.56\00:04:43.20
RESPECT TO
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA.
00:04:43.20\00:04:45.00
YES, AND OUR TEAM.
00:04:45.00\00:04:46.46
WE DON'T HAVE A PHYSICAL OFFICE.
00:04:46.46\00:04:49.33
WE WORK OUT OF OUR HOMES BECAUSE
THAT'S ONE OF THE MARVELOUS
00:04:49.33\00:04:55.56
THINGS ABOUT GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:04:55.56\00:04:56.93
THE OVERHEAD IS SO LOW THAT WE
CAN SEND MOST OF THE DOLLAR TO
00:04:56.93\00:05:03.23
THE FRONT LINES
WHERE IT BELONGS.
00:05:03.23\00:05:05.73
WE WANT TO REACH EVERY CHURCH IN
CANADA AND LET THEM KNOW ABOUT
00:05:05.73\00:05:11.80
GOSPEL OUTREACH AND HAVE THEM
BECOME A SUPPORTER OF GOSPEL
00:05:14.16\00:05:17.36
OUTREACH. THE WHOLE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORLD DESERVES TO KNOW
THAT GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:05:17.36\00:05:23.60
CANADA IS VERY, VERY SIGNIFICANT
IN THE OPERATION OF GOSPEL
00:05:23.60\00:05:28.00
OUTREACH BECAUSE WITHOUT CANADA,
THE WORK THAT IS DONE THROUGHOUT
00:05:28.00\00:05:33.16
THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
WORLD COULDN'T BE ACCOMPLISHED.
00:05:33.16\00:05:35.20
SO WE THANK YOU FOR
YOUR LEADERSHIP DWIGHT.
00:05:35.20\00:05:38.43
I KNOW YOU ARE LEADING BASED
UPON THE HISTORIC LEADING OF A
00:05:38.43\00:05:44.46
NUMBER OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO
HAVE HELPED DEVELOP THE WORK IN
00:05:44.46\00:05:48.30
CANADA. I AM AWARE THAT YOU ARE
A PART OF GOSPEL OUTREACH
BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN
00:05:50.26\00:05:58.03
INVOLVED WITH MINISTRY IN THE
SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FOR
00:05:58.03\00:06:02.16
A NUMBER OF YEARS.
00:06:02.16\00:06:03.13
YOU'RE A FOREIGN MISSIONARY.
00:06:03.13\00:06:04.06
YOU'VE BEEN A FOREIGN
MISSIONARY SO TO SPEAK.
00:06:04.06\00:06:07.06
TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT
YOUR EXPERIENCE AS A MISSIONARY.
00:06:07.06\00:06:10.73
I'M A TEACHER.
00:06:10.73\00:06:12.56
MY WIFE AND I ARE TEACHERS,
SO WE WENT OVERSEAS TO LEBANON
00:06:12.56\00:06:18.60
FIRST OF ALL.
00:06:21.33\00:06:22.33
WE SPENT SEVEN YEARS
THERE TEACHING IN OUR SCHOOLS.
00:06:22.33\00:06:26.20
THE LAST MISSION APPOINTMENT
WAS IN EGYPT FOR TEN YEARS.
00:06:26.20\00:06:32.80
WE WERE PRINCIPAL
OF NILE UNION ACADEMY.
00:06:32.80\00:06:36.10
THAT WAS A
WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE AS WELL.
00:06:36.10\00:06:38.10
I CAN TELL YOU, IF YOU COULD GET
THE PRIVILEGE OF SITTING IN A
00:06:38.10\00:06:44.13
CORNER WITH DWIGHT AND HIS WIFE
THEY COULD TELL YOU WONDERFUL
EXCITING MISSION STORIES
00:06:49.96\00:06:56.03
FROM THOSE 17 YEARS HE'S JUST
MADE BRIEF REFERENCE TO AND TALK
00:06:58.13\00:07:04.90
ABOUT NAMES AND FACES AND PEOPLE
AFTER WHOM YOUR LIVES WILL NEVER
BE THE SAME WILL THEY.
00:07:04.90\00:07:10.96
THAT'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
00:07:12.96\00:07:14.33
THESE HAVE BEEN THE BEST YEARS
OF OUR LIVES, THE YEARS WE SPENT
00:07:14.33\00:07:21.03
IN THE MISSION FIELD.
00:07:21.03\00:07:22.90
BUT YOU'RE STILL
IN THE MISSION FIELD.
00:07:22.90\00:07:24.90
WE'RE STILL IN A MISSION VIELD
AND WE'RE HAPPY TO BE PART OF
00:07:24.90\00:07:28.83
GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:07:28.83\00:07:30.16
YOU KNOW DAN, AS MANY PEOPLE
WATCH THIS PROGRAM I'M SURE THE
00:07:30.16\00:07:35.86
AVERAGE ADVENTIST IS WONDERING
JUST WHICH MINISTRY DO I ADOPT.
00:07:39.63\00:07:44.60
THERE ARE SO MANY MINISTRIES.
00:07:44.60\00:07:46.73
THE ADVENTIST CHURCH IS
LITERALLY BURSTING WITH
MINISTRIES, AND I'M SURE
00:07:46.73\00:07:52.23
GOD IS VERY,
VERY HAPPY ABOUT THAT.
00:07:52.23\00:07:54.96
WELL, IT'S A PART OF OUR DNA TO
RESPOND TO THE GOSPEL COMMISSION
00:07:54.96\00:08:01.90
AND EVERY POSSIBILITY THAT
OCCURS TO US SOMEBODY SAYS"YES,
00:08:01.90\00:08:06.90
LET'S DO THAT, LET'S DO THAT."
00:08:06.90\00:08:07.90
SO WE HAVE A WIDE
VARIETY OF MINISTRIES.
00:08:07.90\00:08:10.10
SOME OF THEM ARE THESE BIG
PUBLIC MINISTRIES LIKE TV AND
00:08:10.10\00:08:16.13
RADIO AND MEDICAL MINISTRIES,
ADRA AND ALL OF THAT.
00:08:18.40\00:08:21.90
BUT MANY INDIVIDUAL ADVENTISTS
ARE SEEING A NEED HERE, AN
00:08:21.90\00:08:29.80
ORPHANAGE THAT NEEDS TO BE BUILT
UP, SOME SCHOOLS, AND THEY ARE
00:08:29.80\00:08:34.13
TAKING ON THESE MINISTRIES.
00:08:34.13\00:08:35.26
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS JUST MOVING
UPON THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE.
00:08:35.26\00:08:40.23
I THINK OF THAT TEXT IN JOEL
2:28 YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE
00:08:40.23\00:08:47.73
VISIONS, YOUR OLD
MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS.
00:08:47.73\00:08:50.26
THAT'S HAPPENING IN
THE ADVENTIST CHURCH TODAY.
00:08:50.26\00:08:54.30
WE'VE GOT ALL
KINDS OF MINISTRIES.
00:08:54.30\00:09:00.06
IN A SENSE IT'S SORT OF A
PROBLEM TO CHURCH MEMBERS
BECAUSE WHICH MINISTRY DO
00:09:00.06\00:09:05.93
I SUPPORT.
00:09:05.93\00:09:06.93
I CAN'T SUPPORT THEM ALL.
00:09:06.93\00:09:08.50
I UNDERSTAND.
00:09:08.50\00:09:09.66
THERE'S SUCH A NEED, AND THEY
ARE ALL DOING A WONDERFUL JOB.
00:09:09.66\00:09:14.20
WHICH MINISTRY SHALL I SUPPORT.
00:09:14.20\00:09:17.96
SO WE COME RIGHT DOWN TO
WHY SHOULD WE SUPPORT GOSPEL
00:09:17.96\00:09:21.20
OUTREACH. THAT'S IT.
00:09:21.20\00:09:22.60
I'D LIKE TO EXPLAIN TO PEOPLE A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW THE GOSPEL
00:09:22.60\00:09:29.63
OUTREACH MINISTRY IS
QUITE UNIQUE, QUITE UNIQUE.
00:09:29.63\00:09:33.30
FIRST OF ALL THE STATISTICS SHOW
THAT MOST MISSIONS ARE FOCUSED
00:09:33.30\00:09:39.33
ON LANDS THAT ARE
ALREADY CHRISTIAN.
00:09:43.36\00:09:46.43
BUT GOSPEL OUTREACH IS A
LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN THAT.
00:09:46.43\00:09:50.30
GOSPEL OUTREACH FOCUSES ON THE
10/40 WINDOW WHERE THE
OVERWHELMING MAJORITY,
00:09:50.30\00:09:56.90
LIKE 97% OF THE
UNREACHED PEOPLE LIVE.
00:09:56.90\00:10:02.50
THIS IS THE AREA OF ISLAM,
THIS IS THE AREA OF HINDUISM, OF
00:10:02.50\00:10:06.86
BUDDHISM AND ALL KINDS OF
RELIGIONS THAT ARE OPPOSED TO
00:10:06.86\00:10:10.46
CHRISTIANITY. MANY, MANY
POPULATIONS WHO HAVE NEVER HEARD
00:10:10.46\00:10:16.53
THE NAME JESUS. YES.
00:10:18.73\00:10:20.10
SO GOSPEL OUTREACH HAS BEEN,
I THINK, VERY WELL TARGETED IN
00:10:20.10\00:10:25.80
FOCUSING ON THAT AREA.
00:10:28.90\00:10:29.86
THAT'S ONE GOOD
THING TO KEEP IN MIND.
00:10:29.86\00:10:31.86
AND THE POPULATION IN THAT SO
CALLED 10/40 WINDOW FROM CHINA
00:10:31.86\00:10:37.93
ON ONE SIDE TO WEST AFRICA ON
THE OTHER SIDE, THE MAJORITY OF
THE WORLD'S POPULATION LIVE IN
00:10:44.26\00:10:51.06
THAT 10/40 WINDOW.
00:10:51.06\00:10:52.43
YES, OVER FOUR BILLION PEOPLE
AND 2.8 BILLION PEOPLE HAVE NOT
00:10:52.43\00:10:59.16
HEARD THE NAME OF JESUS.
00:10:59.16\00:11:00.63
IMAGINE, IT'S NOT 2.8 MILLION,
ITS 2.8 BILLION PEOPLE HAVE NOT
00:11:00.63\00:11:05.83
PERSONALLY HEARD THE STORY OF
JESUS AND KNOW WHAT JESUS IS ALL
00:11:05.83\00:11:11.86
ABOUT. WE'VE GOT TO CHANGE THAT.
00:11:11.86\00:11:14.46
THE GOSPEL COMMISSION SAYS THIS
GOSPEL SHALL BE PREACHED, THEN
00:11:14.46\00:11:20.03
SHALL THE END COME.
00:11:20.03\00:11:21.53
I KNOW THERE ARE THOSE WHO WOULD
TAKE ISSUE WITH ME, BUT I THINK
00:11:21.53\00:11:28.13
THAT SAYS THAT UNTIL JESUS IS
INTRODUCED IN ALL THE WORLD, HE
00:11:28.13\00:11:34.66
CAN'T COME. HE'S NOT GOING TO
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF PEOPLE WHO
DIDN'T KNOW WHO HE WAS.
00:11:34.66\00:11:39.23
SO THOSE OF US WHO DO HAVE THE
INSPIRING CALL ON OUR LIVES TO
00:11:39.23\00:11:45.26
TAKE JESUS TO THE WORLD.
00:11:48.23\00:11:49.16
WE NEED MANY, MANY
MORE EVANGELISTS OUT THERE.
00:11:49.16\00:11:52.80
BUT AT LEAST WE
HAVE A GOOD START.
00:11:52.80\00:11:56.06
THEN ANOTHER GOOD THING THAT
GOSPEL OUTREACH DOES THAT I'M SO
00:11:56.06\00:12:02.66
PROUD OF IS THAT GOSPEL OUTREACH
FOCUSES WITHIN THOSE VAST
GEOGRAPHIC AREAS, IT
00:12:02.66\00:12:09.80
FOCUSES ON THE
NEW UNENTERED AREAS.
00:12:09.80\00:12:12.33
FOR THREE TO FIVE YEARS THE
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER WORKS
00:12:12.33\00:12:14.33
WITH THE CHURCH. YOU KNOW,
WE OFTEN TALK ABOUT FRONT DOOR,
00:12:14.33\00:12:18.86
BACK DOOR. THEY COME IN THE
FRONT DOOR, THEY STAY FOR A
MONTH OR TWO AND THEIR OUT
00:12:18.86\00:12:24.93
THE BACK DOOR BEFORE
YOU CAN TURN AROUND TWICE.
00:12:31.30\00:12:35.00
BUT WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH THERE
IS A WORKER THERE FOR THREE TO
00:12:35.00\00:12:41.40
FIVE YEARS TO NOT ONLY BRING THE
PERSON INTO THE TRUTH AND TELL
THEM ABOUT JESUS BUT THEN
00:12:41.40\00:12:47.13
TO STAY BY AND NURTURE THEM
WITHIN THE CHURCH, WITHIN THEIR
00:12:47.13\00:12:51.90
CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE AND
SEE SOME CHRISTIAN GROWTH TAKE
00:12:51.90\00:12:55.60
PLACE. I THINK
THAT IS SO IMPORTANT.
00:12:55.60\00:12:59.73
I'M GLAD YOU EMPHASIZED THAT
DWIGHT BECAUSE HISTORICALLY IT
00:12:59.73\00:13:06.50
HAS POSSIBLY BEEN THAT SOMEBODY
COMES AND WE HAVE A WONDERFUL
00:13:06.50\00:13:13.80
EXCITING PROGRAM AND PEOPLE ARE
ATTRACTED AND THEY COME WITH WOW
00:13:13.80\00:13:20.43
AND THEY KIND OF LEAVE WITH WOW
AND THEN THESE PEOPLE WHO HAVE
COME WITH THIS PRESENTATION
00:13:20.43\00:13:25.43
WITH ALL THE GLITZ AND GLAMOUR
AND WHATEVER, LEAVE TOWN.
00:13:25.43\00:13:29.53
BUT YOU'RE EMPHASIZING THAT
A PART OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:13:29.53\00:13:35.60
DIVINE GENIUS IS
BUILDING COMMUNITY.
00:13:38.63\00:13:41.66
AND THAT CAN'T BE
DONE IN THREE WEEKS.
00:13:41.66\00:13:43.93
IT TAKES THREE TO FIVE YEARS AND
THAT'S THE DESIGN OF THE GOSPEL
00:13:43.93\00:13:48.66
OUTREACH APPROACH.
00:13:48.66\00:13:49.86
AS YOU SAY,
IT'S A DIVINE DESIGN.
00:13:49.86\00:13:53.16
THIS HAS BEEN GOD'S WILL.
00:13:53.16\00:13:58.76
PERHAPS THE MAIN REASON WHY I'M
INTERESTED IN GOSPEL OUTREACH IS
00:13:58.76\00:14:04.70
THAT THE BEST PERSON TO USE AS
THE PREACHER IS A NATIONAL
WORKER, AN INDIGENOUS
00:14:04.70\00:14:10.76
WORKER.
00:14:15.33\00:14:16.70
IT'S GREAT FOR ME TO GO OVER TO
EGYPT BUT I WAS THERE TEN YEARS
00:14:16.70\00:14:22.66
AND I NEVER WAS ABLE TO PREACH
OR GIVE A BIBLE STUDY IN ARABIC.
00:14:22.66\00:14:27.00
IT ALWAYS HAD TO BE TRANSLATED.
00:14:27.00\00:14:31.63
SOME PEOPLE WOULD SAY "OH,
THIS IS A FOREIGN RELIGION.
00:14:31.63\00:14:35.46
LOOK IT'S COMING
TO US FROM AMERICA.
00:14:35.46\00:14:38.80
IT'S COMING TO US FROM ENGLAND.
00:14:38.80\00:14:40.56
IT'S COMING TO US FROM THE WEST.
00:14:40.56\00:14:42.90
THIS IS NOT OUR RELIGION.
00:14:42.90\00:14:44.06
LET'S STICK WITH OUR RELIGION."
00:14:44.06\00:14:46.00
BUT WHEN NATIONALS TELL
OTHERS ABOUT JESUS IN THEIR OWN
00:14:46.00\00:14:53.30
LANGUAGE WITHIN THEIR OWN
CULTURE THAT TAKES AWAY THAT
00:14:53.30\00:14:55.30
ARGUMENT. NATIONALS ARE ABLE
TO DO A WORK THAT EXPATRIATES
00:14:55.30\00:15:00.13
CANNOT DO. YOU KNOW THERE IS
SOME NEED FOR EXPATRIATE WORKERS
00:15:00.13\00:15:06.20
IN MISSION WORK, BUT IN MOST
CASES THE INDIGENOUS WORKER IS
00:15:14.03\00:15:20.70
THE ONE. THIS IS WHAT FRANK
STANYER SAW WHEN HE WORKED IN
THE PHILIPPINES THOSE MANY
00:15:20.70\00:15:26.83
YEARS AGO.
00:15:26.83\00:15:28.20
THERE ARE GOOD FILIPINOS WHO
KNOW THE BIBLE JUST AS WELL AS I
00:15:28.20\00:15:34.56
KNOW IT. WHY CAN'T
THEY REACH THEIR OWN PEOPLE.
00:15:34.56\00:15:37.20
THEY KNOW HOW TO COMMUNICATE
IT BETTER THAN I KNOW HOW TO
00:15:37.20\00:15:40.93
COMMUNICATE IT
TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE.
00:15:40.93\00:15:41.93
THAT'S RIGH, THAT'S RIGHT.
00:15:41.93\00:15:43.30
THEY CAN WALK INTO A VILLAGE AND
TALK TO THE VILLAGE ELDERS AND
00:15:43.30\00:15:47.90
GET THE PERMISSION TO PREACH.
00:15:47.90\00:15:50.63
YOU KNOW, THE WHOLE VILLAGE
ENDS UP BECOMING ADVENTIST.
00:15:50.63\00:15:54.13
WE EXPATRIATES ARE NOT ABLE
TO DO AMAZING THINGS LIKE THAT.
00:15:54.13\00:15:58.96
YOU KNOW, YOU REMIND ME THAT
THE HISTORY OF MISSIONS HAS BEEN
00:15:58.96\00:16:05.10
PRIMARILY, WE WESTERNERS WHO
HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH THE
DIVINE PROCLAMATION OF
00:16:10.83\00:16:16.90
THE GOSPEL IN THE TERRITORY OF
THE WEST WHERE THERE WAS FREEDOM
00:16:22.90\00:16:29.73
OF THOUGHT AND
RELIGION, FAITH, WHATEVER.
00:16:29.73\00:16:32.53
WE HAVE EXPORTED TO OTHER
COUNTRIES, AND GOD HAS BLESSED
00:16:32.53\00:16:37.86
IN REMARKABLE WAYS.
00:16:37.86\00:16:38.90
SO MUCH OF GOSPEL OUTREACH
MINISTRY IS IN INDIA NOW.
00:16:38.90\00:16:43.06
I HAVE HAD THE BLESSING OF
KNOWING LOTS OF THOSE EARLY
00:16:43.06\00:16:50.13
MISSIONARIES TO INDIA AND
THE REMARKABLE WORK THEY DID.
00:16:50.13\00:16:53.43
BUT THEY WORKED THEIR WHOLE
LIVES TO GET ACQUAINTED WITH TEN
00:16:53.43\00:16:57.80
PEOPLE, SO TO SPEAK.
00:16:57.80\00:16:59.43
WHEREAS TODAY WITH THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH APPROACH THESE
INDIGENOUS WORKERS,
00:16:59.43\00:17:01.50
IT'S JUST A NEIGHBOR WHO IS
VISITING THE NEIGHBORS AND THERE
00:17:01.50\00:17:07.53
IS AN ACCEPTANCE LIKE
WE HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED.
00:17:13.13\00:17:15.20
IN FACT I HAD THE SAD OCCASION
TO MINISTER TO A COUPLE OF
00:17:15.20\00:17:21.26
OLD-TIME MISSIONARIES TO INDIA.
00:17:24.00\00:17:28.46
THEY REMEMBERED
THEIR EARLY DAYS IN INDIA.
00:17:28.46\00:17:35.33
THEY KNOW ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING
WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH NOW.
00:17:35.33\00:17:38.36
I REMEMBER ONE DEAR MAN PAST
90 YEARS OF AGE LYING ON HIS BED
00:17:38.36\00:17:44.43
WHERE HE DIED NOT TOO
LONG AFTER, SHAKING HIS HEAD.
00:17:46.90\00:17:50.23
HE SAID "I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE
IT, BUT PRAISE THE LORD."
00:17:50.23\00:17:55.46
SO GOSPEL OUTREACH IS THE
MINISTRY OF THE 21ST CENTURY.
00:17:55.46\00:18:00.33
I BELIEVE IT'S A DIVINE DESIGN.
00:18:00.33\00:18:05.30
AND YOU KNOW DAN, ANOTHER ASPECT
THAT REALLY ATTRACTED ME TO
00:18:05.30\00:18:09.90
GOSPEL OUTREACH WAS THE FACT
THAT THE OVERHEAD OF THE
ORGANIZATION IS SO LOW.
00:18:09.90\00:18:17.56
NONE OF THE WORKERS FOR
GOSPEL OUTREACH IN DEVELOPING IN
00:18:17.56\00:18:19.56
WESTERN LANDS, NONE
OF THEM GET A SALARY.
00:18:19.56\00:18:21.56
NOT EVEN THE
PRESIDENT GETS A SALARY.
00:18:21.56\00:18:27.63
YOU KNOW WE'RE ALL
HAPPY TO WORK AS VOLUNTEERS.
00:18:33.93\00:18:38.03
WE SAY GOSPEL
OUTREACH HAS NO EMPLOYEES.
00:18:38.03\00:18:45.20
IT'S AMAZING AND
NO RETIREMENT PLAN.
00:18:45.20\00:18:49.26
THE MONEY THAT A PERSON GIVES TO
GOSPEL OUTREACH 90 PLUS PERCENT
00:18:49.26\00:18:57.03
OF IT GETS TO THE
ACTUAL TARGET PLACE.
00:18:57.03\00:19:00.26
THE ONLY PERSON THAT GETS A
SALARY IS THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:19:00.26\00:19:06.13
EVANGELIST IN THE FIELD.
00:19:06.13\00:19:08.20
I THINK THAT'S WONDERFUL.
00:19:08.20\00:19:09.66
THE REASON THEY DON'T GET 100
PERCENT TO GO THERE IS BECAUSE
00:19:09.66\00:19:16.26
WE'VE GOT SOME LIGHTS ON HERE
AND WE'VE GOT SOME CAMERAS
RUNNING HERE AND WE'VE GOT OTHER
00:19:16.26\00:19:22.56
COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH TELLING
THE STORY, BUT IT'S STILL
00:19:22.56\00:19:28.26
MINIMAL IN COMPARISON TO WHAT
HAPPENS TO THE WHOLE DOLLAR.
00:19:28.26\00:19:32.16
LET'S FACE IT, GOSPEL OUTREACH
REALIZES THAT ONCE A YEAR THEY
00:19:32.16\00:19:39.20
NEED TO SEND OVER TO THESE
FIELDS A REGIONAL DIRECTOR TO
CHECK ON EVERYTHING TO
00:19:39.20\00:19:45.46
MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS GOING
WELL SO THAT THERE IS
ACCOUNTABILITY AS WELL,
00:19:45.46\00:19:52.00
AND THAT COSTS JUST US A LITTLE
BIT BUT IT'S STILL A VERY SMALL
00:19:52.00\00:19:57.23
AMOUNT. THE OVERHEAD COST FOR
GOSPEL OUTREACH IS VERY, VERY
00:19:57.23\00:20:02.40
LOW. IT'S NOT ONLY IMPORTANT FOR
YOU AS A REGIONAL DIRECTOR TO GO
00:20:02.40\00:20:07.50
FOR ACCOUNTABILITY PURPOSES, BUT
THOSE WORKERS OVER THERE NEED TO
00:20:07.50\00:20:13.13
KNOW THAT THEY ARE A PART OF A
WORLD ORGANIZATION THAT IS
PRAYING FOR THEM, THAT IS
00:20:13.13\00:20:16.60
SUPPORTING THEM AND
THAT IS ENCOURAGING THEM.
00:20:16.60\00:20:18.63
REGIONAL DIRECTORS GO AND DO
TRAINING TO HELP IN WHATEVER WAY
00:20:18.63\00:20:25.50
THEY CAN. YES, IT'S WONDERFUL.
00:20:25.50\00:20:27.20
YOU KNOW, IT'S ABSOLUTELY
AMAZING THAT SINCE GOSPEL
OUTREACH BEGAN IN THE
00:20:27.20\00:20:32.30
EARLY 1990S OVER A MILLION SOULS
HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO THE LORD
00:20:32.30\00:20:38.36
INTO THE ADVENTIST CHURCH
BY GOSPEL OUTREACH EVANGELISTS.
00:20:40.66\00:20:42.80
THAT'S AMAZING.
00:20:42.80\00:20:46.93
WHAT ANY MINISTRY CAN
SAY ANYTHING CLOSE TO THAT.
00:20:46.93\00:20:54.03
DO YOU KNOW DWIGHT
THE LATEST FIGURES?
00:20:54.03\00:20:57.60
I DIDN'T ASK ANYBODY ELSE.
00:20:57.60\00:21:01.53
GOSPEL OUTREACH STARTED WITH
ONE WORKER IN 1993, IF MY MEMORY
00:21:01.53\00:21:07.66
SERVES ME CORRECTLY.
00:21:07.66\00:21:09.16
THE GOSPEL OUTREACH BUDGET AT
THE BEGINNING WAS FIFTY DOLLARS
00:21:09.16\00:21:14.43
A MONTH TO
SUPPORT THAT ONE WORKER.
00:21:14.43\00:21:15.90
HOW MANY WORKERS, ABOUT,
ARE THERE IN THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:21:15.90\00:21:21.46
WORK NOW. THERE ARE
ABOUT TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED.
00:21:21.46\00:21:25.96
AND IN HOW MANY COUNTRIES?
00:21:25.96\00:21:27.16
THERE WAS ONE
COUNTRY IN THE BEGINNING.
00:21:27.16\00:21:29.16
NOW WERE IN
ABOUT FIFTY COUNTRIES.
00:21:29.16\00:21:34.90
FOLKS, I'VE GOT TO TELL YOU, YOU
GET TO BE A PART OF THAT KIND OF
00:21:34.90\00:21:41.83
IMPORTANT, EVEN DRAMATIC GROWTH
OF THE OUTREACH OF THE GOSPEL
HERE IN THE 21ST CENTURY.
00:21:41.83\00:21:47.43
THANK YOU.
00:21:47.43\00:21:48.60
RIGHT NOW YOU SEE ALL THE
INFORMATION AGAIN ON THE SCREEN.
00:21:48.60\00:21:52.66
I WANT TO GIVE YOU
OPPORTUNITY TO JOT THAT DOWN AND
00:21:52.66\00:21:57.56
PARTICULARLY NOTICE
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA.
00:21:57.56\00:21:59.30
THIS PROGRAM WILL ALSO BE AIRED
ACROSS CANADA SO WE WANT YOU
00:21:59.30\00:22:04.90
FOLKS, ALL OF YOU TO KNOW THAT
THIS IS AN INTERNATIONAL GOSPEL
00:22:04.90\00:22:09.30
OUTREACH FAMILY. ARE THERE OTHER
THINGS YOU WANT TO TELL US ABOUT
00:22:09.30\00:22:11.30
GOSPEL OUTREACH? I'M VERY
PLEASED AND PRIVILEGED TO BE A
MEMBER OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:22:11.30\00:22:17.36
CANADA TEAM.
00:22:25.03\00:22:26.06
DO YOU HAVE WORKERS IN
ALL FIFTY FOUR COUNTRIES THEN?
00:22:26.06\00:22:28.03
NO WE DON'T.
00:22:28.03\00:22:29.43
WE'RE ONLY WORKING IN
ABOUT FOURTEEN COUNTRIES SO FAR.
00:22:29.43\00:22:33.00
SO THERE'S A HUGE CHALLENGE.
00:22:33.00\00:22:35.46
THERE'S A HUGE CHALLENGE.
00:22:35.46\00:22:37.43
WE NEED WORKERS.
00:22:37.43\00:22:38.90
WE NEED TO GET INTO ALL KINDS
OF NEW COUNTRIES THAT HAVE NOT
00:22:38.90\00:22:45.76
HEARD. THERE ARE MANY DARK
AREAS IN AFRICA THAT HAVE BEEN
00:22:45.76\00:22:51.03
UNREACHED. GOSPEL OUTREACH
CANADA HAS 132 OF THE TWENTY TWO
HUNDRED WORKERS, THEY ARE
00:22:51.03\00:22:54.03
GOSPEL OUTREACH CANADA WORKERS,
BUT WE NEED THOUSANDS MORE.
00:22:54.03\00:23:00.13
I'VE HEARD FROM INDIA FOR
EXAMPLE AND OTHER AREAS THAT THE
00:23:09.60\00:23:16.60
AVERAGE SUPPORT FOR AN
INDIGENOUS WORKER IS ABOUT
00:23:16.60\00:23:22.06
$150.00. IS THAT
FIGURE IN AFRICA AS WELL?
00:23:22.06\00:23:24.90
IN AFRICA WE FEEL IT'S A LITTLE
BIT MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THAT.
00:23:24.90\00:23:30.43
IF YOU WANT TO ADOPT A
WORKER IN AFRICA IT'S $170.00.
00:23:30.43\00:23:35.53
I JUST WANT TO EMPHASIZE
THAT SOME OF OUR CHURCH MEMBERS
00:23:35.53\00:23:41.20
CANNOT THINK OF THAT.
00:23:41.20\00:23:42.50
THAT IS TOO MUCH MONEY FOR THEM,
SO I WANT TO ENCOURAGE THEM TO
00:23:42.50\00:23:49.20
GIVE WHAT THEY CAN.
00:23:49.20\00:23:50.93
EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS.
00:23:50.93\00:23:52.26
IF THEY ARE ABLE TO ACTUALLY
ADOPT A WORKER, THEY WILL BE
00:23:52.26\00:23:58.03
ASSIGNED A WORKER, THEY WILL
RECEIVE HIS INFORMATION, HIS
NAME, HIS WORK, A PICTURE AND
00:23:58.03\00:24:05.30
STORIES ABOUT HIM EVERY QUARTER.
00:24:05.30\00:24:08.46
THANK YOU FOR
REMINDING ME OF THAT DWIGHT.
00:24:08.46\00:24:10.56
THROUGHOUT THESE PROGRAMS THAT
I GET TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS
00:24:10.56\00:24:16.66
SEASON I'VE TRIED TO UNDERSCORE
THIS GOSPEL OUTREACH ADOPT A
00:24:16.66\00:24:23.93
WORKER PROGRAM. WHAT I HAVE
PROPOSED, RECOGNIZING THAT AN
INDIVIDUAL OR A FAMILY
00:24:23.93\00:24:30.36
MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO UNDERTAKE
THE SUPPORT OR THE ADOPTION OF A
00:24:30.36\00:24:35.66
WORKER THEMSELVES, I'VE SAID
DO IT AS A SABBATH SCHOOL CLASS.
00:24:35.66\00:24:39.23
DO IT WITH THE NEIGHBORS.
00:24:39.23\00:24:40.63
OR IF YOU ARE OF AGES LIKE I AM
AND YOU'VE GOT CHILDREN WHY NOT
00:24:40.63\00:24:47.33
MAKE IT A LARGER
FAMILY UNDERTAKING.
00:24:47.33\00:24:50.20
THE WONDERFUL THING ABOUT THIS
IS, AS YOU HAVE JUST MADE
REFERENCE, WHEN YOU
00:24:50.20\00:24:58.16
AND I'M SPEAKING TO YOU FOLKS
WHO ARE A PART OF OUR GOSPEL
00:24:58.16\00:25:01.90
OUTREACH FAMILY THERE IN
TELEVISION, IF YOU ADOPT A
WORKER YOU'LL KNOW THAT WORKERS
00:25:01.90\00:25:07.20

POINT GET TO SEE THAT WORKER'S

PICTURE AND YOU WILL GET VIA
EMAIL PREFERABLY I THINK, YOU
WILL BE ABLE TO GET
00:25:12.46\00:25:18.66
FIRST-HAND ACCOUNTS OF WHAT'S
HAPPENING WITH YOUR WORKER IN
00:25:18.66\00:25:25.33
THAT PARTICULAR FIELD.
00:25:25.33\00:25:26.73
YOU WILL HAVE SPECIFIC OCCASION
TO PRAY FOR YOUR WORKER AND THE
00:25:26.73\00:25:32.73
WORK THAT SHE OR
HE MAY BE DOING THERE.
00:25:32.73\00:25:35.63
SOME FINAL WORDS?
00:25:35.63\00:25:36.60
HOW ARE WE GOING TO
REACH THIS EXPANDING WORLD?
00:25:36.60\00:25:42.70
DO YOU KNOW THAT EVERY YEAR THE
POPULATION OF THE WORLD EXPANDS
00:25:46.40\00:25:53.36
BY ABOUT 80 MILLION PEOPLE.
00:25:53.36\00:25:55.13
THAT'S MORE THAN TWO CANADA'S,
MORE THAN TWO NEW CANADA'S ARE
00:25:55.13\00:26:01.23
FORMED EVERY YEAR.
00:26:03.56\00:26:04.56
THAT'S THE NET GAIN.
00:26:04.56\00:26:05.56
THAT'S AFTER THE
DEATHS ARE SUBTRACTED.
00:26:05.56\00:26:07.56
EIGHTY MILLION NEW PEOPLE.
00:26:07.56\00:26:13.63
HOW ARE WE GOING
TO KEEP UP WITH THAT?
00:26:15.90\00:26:17.90
WE NEED A GOSPEL
OUTREACH EXPLOSION.
00:26:17.90\00:26:19.86
WE NEED A GOSPEL
OUTREACH EXPLOSION.
00:26:19.86\00:26:21.86
I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT YOU
ARE ONE OF OUR LEADERS DWIGHT.
00:26:21.86\00:26:29.23
YOU ARE LEADING THE CHARGE.
00:26:29.23\00:26:31.50
AND I'M SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF
YOU FOLKS WHO JOIN US IN THESE
00:26:31.50\00:26:37.10
PROGRAMS THAT YOU ARE RESPONDING

OUTREACH FAMILY. THANK
YOU FOR BEING WITH US TODAY.
00:26:57.63\00:26:59.70
[CLOSING MUSIC] I NEED TO
SPREAD THE GOSPEL HERE AT HOME.
00:27:07.86\00:27:13.90
WHERE IS THE
10/40 WINDOW ANYWAY?
00:27:18.60\00:27:22.30
THOSE PEOPLE LIVE TOO FAR AWAY.
00:27:22.30\00:27:24.93
SOMEONE ELSE CAN
TELL THEM ABOUT JESUS.
00:27:24.93\00:27:27.36
MAYBE THEY COULD JUST WATCH TV.
00:27:27.36\00:27:31.06
NEARLY THREE
BILLION PEOPLE TO REACH.
00:27:31.06\00:27:34.73
MY HEAD HURTS.
00:27:34.73\00:27:36.66
THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO.
00:27:36.66\00:27:38.73
I GIVE UP.
00:27:38.73\00:27:39.73
WHAT'S THE POINT OF TRYING?
00:27:39.73\00:27:41.76
I CAN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:27:41.76\00:27:43.40
ACTUALLY YOU CAN
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
00:27:43.40\00:27:45.86
AND JESUS ASKED YOU
TO GO TO ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:45.86\00:27:51.06
WHERE?
00:27:51.06\00:27:52.06
ALL THE WORLD.
00:27:52.06\00:27:53.23
HOW CAN I GO?
00:27:53.23\00:27:54.23
I HAVE COMMITMENTS.
00:27:54.23\00:27:55.43
YOU CAN PRAY.
00:27:55.43\00:27:57.56
YOU CAN VOLUNTEER YOUR TALENTS.
00:27:57.56\00:28:02.50
YOU CAN TELL OTHERS.
00:28:02.50\00:28:06.53
YOU CAN GIVE MONEY TO
SPONSOR BIBLE WORKERS.
00:28:06.53\00:28:09.36
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE
SEARCHING FOR HOPE AND MEANING.
00:28:09.36\00:28:12.30
BUT THEY WON'T
FIND IT WITHOUT YOU.
00:28:12.30\00:28:14.46
BE THE SPARK.
00:28:14.46\00:28:15.96
LIGHT THE FIRE.
00:28:15.96\00:28:22.56
FINISH THE WORK.
00:28:22.56\00:28:28.63
